2013-14 NFL Preseason Thread: Pacman on Hard Knocks, Hernandez on Lockup

Mingo ded (for week 1)

It's unlikely that pass-rusher Barkevious Mingo will play in the regular-season opener against the Miami Dolphins, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. But the No. 6 overall pick in this year's draft is expected to play Week 2 against the Baltimore Ravens.

If this timetable proves correct, the Browns and Mingo should feel very lucky. It was only two weeks ago when he was spitting up blood on the sideline of a preseason game and experienced shortness of breath. He was diagnosed with a bruised lung and was hospitalized for two days. It's remarkable that Mingo won't have to miss an extended amount of time. ESPN's Ed Werder reports that the Browns have scheduled a CT scan for Mingo on Monday, which should help make a determination on his status for Week 1.

The Browns will miss Mingo coming off the edge and going after Ryan Tannehill, but they can absorb his absence for one game. Paul Kruger and Jabaal Sheard have been the starting outside linebackers all summer, and the Browns have depth with Quentin Groves as another pass-rusher.

There are other players that the Browns will miss more in the opener. The Browns' top two options at right guard -- Shawn Lauvao and Jason Pinkston -- are expected to be sidelined with ankle injuries, and wide receiver Josh Gordon is suspended for the first two games of the season.

Well, don't draft Giants RB Andre Brown anymore. Just broke his leg. Preseason is ridiculous. All yours, David Wilson.

Nothing. His hip is an issue but he said he'll be ready week 1.

[tyven]

i feel like his hip @ 50% > rest of league anyway

[Rhinox]

Yeah.

[Azull]

So with a 100% hip he should be able to plant a Packer a full 6 ft deep?

He was convicted of rape that was turned out to be a false accusation 5ish (?) years later. Lost scholarship offers to USC and everything.

Damn. Raw deal

[archibaldcrane]

He should've gotten a college scholarship instead. Could've probably played anywhere in the country, gotten an education.

Supposedly the Falcons are going to try to find a front-office job for him.

[Chun Liroy]

Football in less than a week, new thread is necessitated.

[Rhinox]

Then do it faggot.


So it can be locked and you be laughed at.
